Clarksville is a city steeped in history and rich in culture. Nestled along the shores where the meandering Cumberland River meets the Red River, it was established in 1785 and named after General George Rogers Clark, a Revolutionary War soldier and frontiersman. The city has evolved from its agrarian beginnings into a center of education and the arts, home to Austin Peay State University and a vibrant arts scene. The river itself, a vital artery for the city’s development, offers stunning vistas and recreational opportunities, such as kayaking, boating and fishing.
